there is a great essay
by Antoni Tapies titled
NOTHING IS TOO PETTY
in which he describes art as magic
the artist as magician and the space in
which it is presented as the theatre or stage
art
artist
venue
the magician
can make a coin
disappear almost anywhere
but can only make an elephant
disappear when in a particular setting
cafe art
street art
house art
gallery art
museum art
magic is a peculiar and beautiful thing
art is a peculiar and beautiful thing
for they both ultimately depend
upon the willingness of the
audience
one
can
only
experience
magic
experience
art
if
one
is
willing
if
one
desires
this applies to all art and to all magic
